"In unity there is strength'

Acronym Community Empowerment (ACE)

We work to support disadvantaged women, children, and young adults by delivering creative education and training programmes. Our activities promote social inclusion, bringing people together from diverse backgounds, cultures, talents, skills, and creativity and help them gain new skills and access to employment, education, and training to help them grow. This means believing in the power of unity between people and recognising that in unity there is strength and everyone has the skill to share and to contribute.
